    Quarterly Contests

    Overview: In an effort to increase attention to membership recruitment throughout the year, NAHU will institute four quarterly membership contests to run concurrently with the annual GAIN contest.

    Time Periods:
    1Q - May 1 - July 31 First Quarter Standings
    2Q - August 1 - October 31 Second Quarter Standings
    3Q - November 1 - January 31 Third Quarter Standings
    4Q - February 1 - April 30 Fourth Quarter Standings

    Who is Eligible?: Local chapters, state chapters and regions.

    Scoring System: Scoring will be determined by NET GROWTH RATE during the contest period (membership at end of period / membership at start of period). Net growth rate places an equal emphasis on recruitment and retention and is chapter-size neutral. Therefore, there will be no distinction between large/small chapters or states.

    Recognition: Winning chapters/regions will receive banners to be presented as follows:
    1Q - Presented at Regional Leadership Conference
    2Q - Presented in time for chapter holiday party
    3Q - Presented at Capitol Conference
    4Q - Presented at Convention

    All winners of the quarterly contests will be recognized during the Awards Breakfast at convention, and will be announced in The Leader.

    Effect on GAIN Contest: The GAIN contest remains unchanged, and will measure total members recruited, percentage growth and retention over a 12-month period beginning May 1. Chapters that perform consistently well in the quarterly contests can expect to place highly in the GAIN contest as well.
